A Life Made Miserable

By dyspepsia is scarcely worth the living. A
capricious appetite, heartburn, puzzling nervous
symptoms, increased action Of the heart after
eating, sinking in the abdomen between meals,
and aatulence after, are among the successive
indicia of this harrassing complaint. Two things
only are needful for its removal. A resort to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and persistence in
its use. These remedial measures being adopted,
a cure is certain. Taken Immediately before
or after meals, this great stomachic promotes
secretion of the gastric juice, the natural solvent
of the food. The nervous and bilious symp-
toms consequent upon chronic Indigestion dis
appear, as the complaint gradually yields to
the corrective and i~nvigorating influence Of the
Bitters. Appetite returns, sleep becomes more
GENTLY nourished, muscular power increases,
and the mind grow sanguine. Use the Bitters
tor chills md fever, and rheumatism.

ed by all. In this talent rests the main
secret Of success or failure, although
much may be done by measurement and
calculation. Indeed the most accom-
plished sculptor relics upon these
methods of reproducing the model. but
no amount of measurement and calcu-
lation produce the exquisite quail
ties of light and shade found in fine
sculpture. That is art.
It may be that after the amateur
shall have modelled q fair bit in relief
he will wish to reproduce it in plaster.
This is a simple matter. We will sup
pose that the subject is a panel or a
medallion. Build a wall of beeswax
two or three inches high about its out
er edge, or it may be fitted into a
frame of paseboard of the exact size,
and give the model a thorough oiling
with a brush dipped in boiled linseed,
oil. They mix plaster of paris with
water to the consistency of thick
cream, beating it free from Jumps, and
pour it upon the model until it shall be
of the required thickness. Let it stand
for ten minutes or so, when it will be
hardened sufficiently to be separated
from the clay, which may be done with
a dull knife, first scraping the edge un-
til the dividing line may be seen: In
twenty-four hours the cast will be quite
hard, and may be used in turn as a
mold in which to produce q fac smile
of the original, which is a repetition
|. of the process just described. If the
plaster has been mixed with milk and
water, or if it be brushed over with a
mixture of oil and wax, the surface
will when dry take a good polish, and
will after awhile acquire the appear
ance of old ivory. Another method is
to keep the cast in an wen of about 800
degrees for forty-eight hours, and then
to steep it in olive oil. Afterward inn
merse it in warm water and polish
with whiting. The plaster for casts
may be tinted any desired color by col
oring the water with which it is mixed
with soluble dyes. Gum arabic and
alum mixed with the water will make
the plaster as hard as the hardest wood,
so that it may be used in ornamenting
furniture. Gelatine is often used to
make a mold to receive the plaster cast
and takes a finer impression than the
plaster, being smoother and softer.
Stiff flour paste or the papier-mache
used by stereotypers may also serve the
purpose. The latter is often used by
travellers to take. impressions of bas-
reliefs or inscriptions which are not
easy to copy in any other way.
But aside from:making casts of ones
own work it may be desirable to copy
bronze or marble medalions or panels.
This may be done without injury to
to the original by taking the impression
in any of the materials mentioned,
which serves as arnold into which to
pour the plaster. A series of plaster
panels owe doors, or s~urmounting
mantels, or bordering fire-places (as
tiles are commonly used). will do
much in the way Of decoration, and the
process is so easy, especially if bronze
or other models be used, and the ex.
pense SO trifiing that amateurs will find
in the work rare satisfaction. -Phila-

Every farm should have a good
farmer.
The man never has good luck who
has bad wife.
The masses against the classes the
world over.
A man who does not love praise is
not full man.
A man must ask leave of his stom-
ache to be happy man.
1t takes longer for man to find
out man than any other creature that
is made.
| Flowers are the sweetest things
that God ever made and forgot to
put a soul into.
A man without self-restraint is
like a barrel without hoops, and
tumbles to pieces.
Whoever makes home seem to the
young dearer and more happy is a
public benefactor.
That cannot be healthy condition
in which few prosper and the great
mass are drudges.
A proud man is seldom grateful

much as he deserves.
The greatest event in hens life is
made up of an egg and cackle.
But eagles never cackle.
One of the original tendencies of
the human mind, fundamental and
universal, is the love of other peoples

DEMocRAT.-The Captain of the
Salvation Army has changed base
and gone to establish quarters
elsewhere, leaving the campaign to
be conducted by the two female tam
borinsts, Billy the kid, and any other
party they happen to pick up for the
moment. This absence of the captain
who also lead the musical portion of
the excerises on the cornet knocks the
chief attraction out of their perfor-
manoes. Curiosity, however, has thus
far nightly filled their hall with mis-
cellaneous gathering of men, women
and children. This once gratifed their
hearers will be few. The burthen of
the song of this army of soul savers
is begging. They can make an Indian
or tramp ashamed of himself in this
line of vagabondage; and they Sod
bless" everybody in great profusion.

man who had much babblng and
bloarness of eyes from long tarryings

barracks and went forward to give
his experience. He said: | am a

chucked two half dollars down on the
platform, and reeled out. As the
money jingled on the platform the
captain, who caught the clnk of the
coin, stopped singing long enough to
shout "hallelujah!" This experience
related by the Oregonian provoked
much laughter, and while the con
gregation laughed the captain of the
army scooped in the two half dollars.
